With the World Cup not far away, the big question everyone’s facing is ‘where’s the best place to catch all the action?’ And if you didn’t get a ticket to the game then there’s only one answer – Walkabout. For the ultimate rugby experience, great food and drinks deals, and an awesome atmosphere, look no further than Walkabout on Wiston Terrace.

The pinnacle of rugby tournaments will see 20 teams go head-to-head in 48 thrilling matches with the winner claiming the most prestigious prize of them all – The Webb Ellis Cup.

The tournament will run from 18th September until 31st October, with the first fixture seeing hosts England take on Fiji at Twickenham Stadium in London. New Zealand, the number one team in the world, will be looking for back-to-back trophies after their victorious campaign on home soil back in 2011, whilst this years’ hosts will want to replicate their famous victory from 2003 where they became the first Northern Hemisphere team to lift the trophy.

Fans across the world are preparing for the start of the tournament and Walkabout is offering the best viewing experience with big screens and full commentary all live in HD. Each game will be accompanied by on screen game stats, player profiles and highlights from previous games, not forgetting unique social media feeds from anyone who’s anyone in rugby!
